1) Always keep your eye on your mark, 2) do not walk too fast on your approach, 3) keep your eye on your mark while releasing the ball and follow through towards your mark, 4) do not get upset if you throw a good ball in the pocket and leave a pin or two because you will eventually throw a bad ball that should leave a split but will get a strike, 5) make sure the ball you use fits comfortably and is not too heavy, 6 and most important) enjoy the game.

Practice and lots of it. I used to bowl 10 leagues a week, two leagues a night, 5 days a week and was a substitute 6 out of the 10 leagues. bowled for money (pot bowl) on the weekends and that's what paid for my regular leagues for the next week. I started out with about a 140 average and was at one time holding a 202 average. My high game was a 290, 11 strikes in a row which was really good back in the late 80's early 90's. So, Practice often and concentration is definitely a must. Good Luck & Good Bowling!!!
To improve your fast bowling, give yourself a longer run up, but not too long because you want to get your steps right. Then when you come in to bowl, swing your arm through fast and you should be bowling quicker! Rob

Use the bat as a protection. When the ball goes to the side, just whack it like never before, but when it is fast just hold your bat vertically so it protects 1/3 stumps. Then you could drive forward in the same position, for a bit of power.
Bowling speed can be increased via a few different methods. Moving to a lower weight ball can help generate speed. Another method is to change from a four step delivery to a five step delivery. Bringing the ball higher back in the delivery arch can also help promote additional speed.
